How can I know what vendor subfolders were added by a composer dependency?

I need to include "league/flysystem-aws-s3-v3": "^1.0" in my Laravel project (on hosting server). However, running "composer require" in console results in a PHP memory limit error.

It seems like I cannot change the memory_limit in php.ini

So, how do I know which vendor subfolders correspond to this package? So I can update it manually as a workaround.

The easiest way would be to copy your composer.json + composer.lock file from the server to your local machine, then run composer install, then run composer require league/flysystem-aws-s3-v3:^1.0 and copy the resulting vendor directory and composer.json + composer.lock back onto your server.

You could alternatively use git to determine what the differences are if you only wish to copy over the differences -- download your vendor directory + composer.json + composer.lock onto your local machine, create a new repository in that directory, commit: then run composer require league/flysystem-aws-s3-v3:^1.0 and perform git diff.

The reason for copying your composer.lock file is because that file maps dependencies to their specific versions, it's possible that if you just use composer.json you'll have some minor version differences which could cause breaking changes.
